Detailed Description

A method type represents a method, function or procedure type.

It contains a list of the parameter and result types, as these are part of the type description. These lists should not be changed by a optimization, as a change creates a new method type. Therefore optimizations should allocated new method types. The set_ routines are only for construction by a frontend.

n_params: Number of parameters to the procedure. A procedure in FIRM has only call by value parameters.
param_type: A list with the types of parameters. This list is ordered. The nth type in this list corresponds to the nth element in the parameter tuple that is a result of the start node. (See ircons.h for more information.)
value_param_ents A list of entities (whose owner is a struct private to the method type) that represent parameters passed by value.
n_res: The number of results of the method. In general, procedures have zero results, functions one.
res_type: A list with the types of parameters. This list is ordered. The nth type in this list corresponds to the nth input to Return nodes. (See ircons.h for more information.)

Enumeration Type Documentation

enum calling_convention

Calling conventions: lower 24 bits are the number of register parameters, upper 8 encode the calling conventions.

Enumerator
cc_reg_param	Transmit parameters in registers, else the stack is used. This flag may be set as default on some architectures.
cc_last_on_top	The last non-register parameter is transmitted on top of the stack. This is equivalent to the pascal calling convention. If this flag is not set, the first non-register parameter is used (stdcall or cdecl calling convention)
cc_callee_clear_stk	The callee clears the stack. This forbids variadic function calls (stdcall).
cc_this_call	The first parameter is a this pointer and is transmitted in a special way.
cc_compound_ret	The method returns a compound type.
cc_frame_on_caller_stk	The method did not allocate an own stack frame, instead the caller must reserve size on its own stack.
cc_fpreg_param	Transmit floating point parameters in registers, else the stack is used.

Definition at line 1232 of file typerep.h.

enum mtp_additional_properties

Additional method type properties: Tell about special properties of a method type.

Some of these may be discovered by analyses.

Enumerator
mtp_no_property	No additional properties.
mtp_property_no_write	This method does not change any memory known to the rest of the program.
mtp_property_pure	The behaviour of the method does not depend on any global/external state. This mostly means that no waiting/reading of user input is performed, no global variables read, or pointers to memory visible outside of the function dereferenced. The result of the function solely depends on its arguments.
mtp_property_noreturn	This method never returns. The method may for example abort or exit the program or contain an infinite loop). GCC: attribute((noreturn)).
mtp_property_terminates	The function is guaranteed not to end in an endless and to not abort the program.
mtp_property_nothrow	This method cannot throw an exception. GCC: attribute((nothrow)).
mtp_property_naked	This method is naked. GCC: attribute((naked)).
mtp_property_malloc	This method returns newly allocate memory. GCC: attribute((malloc)).
mtp_property_returns_twice	This method can return more than once (typically setjmp). GCC: attribute((returns_twice)).
mtp_property_private	All method invocations are known and inside the current compilation unit, the backend can freely choose the calling convention.
mtp_property_always_inline	Try to always inline this function, even if it seems nonprofitable.
mtp_property_noinline	The function should not be inlined.
mtp_property_inline_recommended	The programmer recommends to inline the function.
mtp_temporary	Marker used by opt_funccall (really a hack)...
